HistoryHope House was built at 116 Piccadilly in 1849/50 by Henry Pelham-Clinton, the 6th Duke of Newcastle. The name Athenaeum first appears around 1864 when the house was bought by the Junior Athenaeum Club. The house was redeveloped in the 1930s as an art deco apartment block, still called the Athenaeum.[1] In 1971 the Rank Organisation purchased the 1930s Athenaeum Court apartment block, opening it as The Athenaeum Hotel after a two-year refurbishment. Through Rank's direct links to Hollywood the hotel attracted guests including Amir Nanneh, Steven Spielberg, Marlon Brando, Harrison Ford, Lauren Bacall, Liza Minnelli, Warren Beatty and Kim Kardashian. Rank encouraged its stars (including Elizabeth Taylor) to take up residence at the hotel whilst working on film projects in England. The Hollywood Reporter observed that there were more movie stars to be seen in London's Athenaeum than in the Polo Lounge of the Beverly Hills Hotel. For over twenty years Sally Bulloch was the Executive Manager.[2] In 1992, the Athenaeum was purchased by Ralph Trustees Limited, a family-run business who also own The Grove in Hertfordshire and the Runnymede Hotel & Spa near Windsor. LocationThe Athenaeum's postcode is W1J 7BJ, right in the heart of Mayfair. The nearest tube station is Green Park.[3] Kid's ConciergeThe Hotel has a dedicated Kid's Concierge service which takes care of children's needs and helps families to plan itineraries. The Athenaeum also provides age-appropriate toys to children upon arrival.[4] AwardsThe hotel has 5 red stars and 2 red rosettes from the AA.[5] The website travelandleisure.com put the Athenaeum in its list of the 500 best hotels in the world in 2008.[6] Afternoon Tea at the Athenaeum has received an Award of Excellence from the UK Tea Guild for Top London Afternoon Tea 2008.[7] References1. ^{{cite web |url=http://www.athenaeumhotel.com/location/our_history.aspx |title=History page of hotel website |publisher=Athenaeum Hotel |accessdate=2009-06-18}} 2. ^{{cite news |url=https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/obituaries/1896195/Sally-Bulloch.html |title=Sally Bulloch's obituary |publisher=Telegraph |accessdate=2008-12-18 | location=London | date=2008-04-21}} 3. ^{{cite web |url=http://www.athenaeumhotel.com/location.aspx |title=Hotel location |publisher=Athenaeum Hotel's website |accessdate=2008-12-18}} 4. ^{{cite news| url=https://www.forbes.com/2010/02/08/family-luxury-hotels-lifestyle-travel-kids-resorts_slide_4.html | work=Forbes | first=Jennifer | last=Murphy | title=Family-Friendly Luxury Hotels}} 5. ^{{cite web |url=http://www.theaa.com/travel/details/hotel/378398 |title=Profile Page on AA website |publisher=AA |accessdate=2009-02-11}} 6. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.travelandleisure.com/tl500/2008/hotel/athenaeum-hotel-and-apartments |title=T+L 500 Winner 2008 |publisher=travelandleisure.com |accessdate=2008-12-18 |deadurl=yes |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20081202143650/http://www.travelandleisure.com./tl500/2008/hotel/athenaeum-hotel-and-apartments |archivedate=2 December 2008 }} 7. ^{{cite web |url=http://www.tea.co.uk/index.php?pgId=111 |title=Top London Afternoon Tea 2008 |publisher=UK Tea Guild |accessdate=2008-12-18}} External links
